OSCon is almost upon us. The deadline for submitting talks was the 9th, and now we have one week to select which talks will go on the schedule. I have 4 tutorials and 4 tutorial slots, so no problem there. But for talks, I have 24 talks and 12 slots. I'm trying to be completely objective. By which I mean that I'm trying to select speakers who are fun at parties, so that I can have a good time at OSCon. ;-)
'Who is more fun at parties' seems like a perfectly reasonable way to determine what talks are scheduled for a conference ;-)

Dude. You have a toga? Ok, you're in.

There are 24 talks, of which about 22 look really interesting, and for which I have 12 slots. I'm taking this very seriously, and trying to consider the talks without considering how much I like the individuals who have submitted them. And I'm getting assistance from various other impartial people.
